Evolutionary genetic analysis uncovers multiple species with distinct habitat preferences and antibiotic resistance phenotypes in the <i>Stenotrophomonas maltophilia</i> complex
2017-05-17
Abstract excerpt
The genus Stenotrophomonas ( Gammaproteobacteria ) has a broad environmental distribution. S. maltophilia is its best known species because it is a globally emerging, multidrug-resistant (MDR), opportunistic pathogen. Members of this species are known to display high genetic, ecological and phenotypic diversity, forming the so-called S. maltophilia complex (Smc). Heterogeneous resistance and virulence phenotyp...
